Getting your jollies off depictions of people suffering (often in gruesome ways) would seem to indicate you are fricked in the head
Are people who enjoy horror films sociopathic?

rape
I'd unironically cuddle and cook some eggs for the one on the left
The right however, uh...
nah it's just entertainment
This, and it applies to all movies, not just horror, I don't understand why people cry so much on internet for something that is just entertainment, if you liked it, well, if you don't, forget it.
some people like the thrill of being frightened, or a creepy atmosphere, women usually
some people like the gore and gross things, these are the weird ones to watch out for
I do have a theory that women like watching horror films because they think it can serve as training to identify dangerous people in their lives, but I don't think it works at all
in general I dont like horror films
but I do like zombie and apocalypse films that deal more with human psychology and survival situations
the gore simply isn't necessary
even jaws isn't about the gore, it's about how humans deal with the shark, while having their personalities clash and some tense moments
btw does this count as horror?
it's low quality entertainment that stimulates the lower senses
yeah, but half the population is under 100 iq, so they are easily impressionable and should be banned from movies, including (You)
Actual horror kinos like The Mist and The Witch are fine. People who watch gore slop like Saw, Hostile, or Terrifier deserve to be castrated.
I do suspect there is something not quite right about them
And Audition. Torture porn crosses the line. Saw is the worst because there's some weird justification for vigilantism and torturing people to death.
Jigsaw still goes after people who didn't deserve his adjudication. It makes him a villain.
Audition's biggest sin is that its incredibly boring & is memed for its surprise final scene which is spoiled in every promotional picture of the movie.
Audition is creepy like Misery. You aren't supposed to enjoy the torture scenes. I think some people do though. There can only be so much torture and blood for me to dislike a movie for it. It should be used to show the character is a threat and serious.
In Audition you knew she was screwed up, but it was clear what she was doing until she reveals the guy in the bag and also starts hurting the main guy in the climax. You are like 'oh shit she is going to turn him into bag guy #2' or whatever. You don't see three scenes of her torturing people or anything.
The worst I have seen is the House of 1,000 Corpses because the entire movie is just watching these people get tortured and toyed with. They don't get to fight back or come up with a strategy to eacape, just get hurt.
>Saw is the worst because there's some weird justification for vigilantism
That's the later sequels where Jigsaw and the mythos became Flanderized. In the earlier movies Jigsaw was torturing people because he was angry he has cancer and they don't.
Horror fan here. I love a survival story. Even if the survivor doesn't make it. And I also agree with this poster:
No, I'm pretty empathetic. I just like over the top violence, spooky atmosphere, and cool villains.
>the mist
>saw
>hostel
>terrifier
>audition
All great, though I'm more into Terrifier 2. The first movie is like a test run.
>the witch
Boring 2010s "elevated horror." Not a fan. These kind of movies beat you over the head with their metaphors and forget to be entertaining. My favorite witchkino is Suspiria (1977) by kinomaster Dario Argento.
Terrifier 2 has its moments but the scene where that girl and her mom get brutalized is just perverted and disgusting. Sorry but if you unironically enjoy that shit you deserve the fate of that girl in the first Terrifier.
>Terrifier 2 has its moments but the scene where that girl and her mom get brutalized is just perverted and disgusting
It was over the top kino, great scene. Loved the puppet they made to portray Allie in her fricked-up state, really cool old-school practical effects.
Give me fun gory horror over metaphor shit about the patriarchy any day.
Idk what a stary cat is, but I've never beheaded anything.
>woman gets skinned alive and bleach poured over her exposed muscles while begging and crying
>WOOOW look at those funny gory really cool old school practical effects xD
Yeah this but unironically. I'm able to separate comedic movies about supernatural killers from reality because I'm not autistic.
you could apply that to any genre of movie, horror movies just use lots of tomato ketchup to convey the horror
>nooooo it was just over the top kinorino that I definitely didn't jerk off to
Buy rope, freak
>Sorry but if you unironically enjoy that shit you deserve the fate of that girl in the first Terrifier.
You aren't meant to enjoy it you're meant to be horrified by it, do coomers really not understand how gore is used in movies?
Chinese movie "The Sadness" is close to Terrifier levels of gore and a very interesting take on the zombie genre where the infected remain sentient and fully capable of speech but instead become sex-crazed murderous degenerates.
>though I'm more into Terrifier 2
How many stary cats have you beheaded this month?
>stary cat
Just realized you meant "stray" kek. The answer is still none. I'm not a sadist for liking silly horror movies.
Redditors will never shame me for liking slashers, sorry.
Well if you like Suspiria you can't be all bad.
More than "like", it's one of my favorite movies ever. Absolute masterpiece.
Saw turns into a campy miniseries with the selling point of gory moments and the first two Hostel movies are actually fairly tame horror comedies apart from a couple shots of violence. Movies like the Guinea Pig series are actual torture porn which I don't enjoy as there isn't much narrative or humor. The guys I've met that like that type of shit are real gorefreak weirdos whereas Saw, Hostel, Final Destination appeal to a broad and mostly normie audience.
Final Destination, yes. An average normie definitely wouldn't make it through Saw or Hostel.
Look at the box office of all the Saw entries, clearly there is mainstream appeal.
Yes, sociopaths are main stream. If you’ve ever had a corporate job or a public facing job you know this
Saw isn't for sociopaths though, because it only appeals to people with empathy who can imagine how scary it would be to be in a situation like that.
Not to mention the overly elaborate soap opera plot lines for women.
>empathy
Just the opposite.
If you enjoy that gore fest there is something wrong with your empathy.
High empathic can’t stand gore movies beucase it is too real to them and they can understand what other people are feeling.
Not being grossed out is one step above
>but I did have breakfast
on the interal simulation engine scale
>they can understand what other people are feeling.
Are you aware that these are horror movies? You're supposed to understand what the other people are feeling. That's the horror part.
How is "simple simulation" different from "animated image"?
because consciousness can interact with the simulation but not the animated image
the image basically describes the birth of god / the one consciousness (which is absurd of course since if all that exist is that one consciousness then time should no exist until it is implemented as a tool in one of the simulation, while still not existing outside of it)
>because consciousness can interact with the simulation but not the animated image
So you mean do you mean that, for example, in the case of the simulation, you can consciously "bump" the object and cause the ball to fall off the edge?
If you don’t understand without explanation you won’t understand with one.
Why is the putty on the corner circled? Obviously they put putty on the corner to soften it considering it's position would make potential head collisions with the corner common enough.
>they can understand what other people are feeling
Yes anon, that's the point
We live boring sheltered lives where we don't experience anything extreme. So to watch something that makes us feel horror or fear is a novelty and it releases endorphins in our brain, but importantly we know it isn't real. It's the same principle as eating spicy food. Do you say
>dude why would someone eat spicy food, it hurts your mouth and why would anyone want to feel pain??? They must have fricked up mental issues
Also why people have weird kinks, it lets us safely explore feelings and situations that aren't normally acceptable
Are you that autistic gross out cretin? Only he would be this much of a homosexual.
>the first two Hostel movies are actually fairly tame horror comedies apart from a couple shots of violence.
People don't believe me when I tell them that Hostel is a funny mystery movie and that the violence isn't that bad, people really think it's like August Underground or Guinea Pig.
Maybe not, but "normies" were the audience in the 2000s. These were popular movies, and Saw X still did well in theaters last year.
>Maybe not, but "normies" were the audience in the 2000s. These were popular movies, and Saw X still did well in theaters last year.
I think it's more a testament to how many weirdos are out there in the world. The average Chad's and Stacy's aren't watching fricking Saw or Hostel.
Maybe not Hostel, but I can tell you the absolute normalgays of normalgays love Saw.
I think they've gained a lot of notoriety so everyone knows about them, but no normie is actually sitting through an entire scene of a dude jamming a needle through his eyeball to get a key stuck in his brain or whatever the frick they think up for those gore slop shitshows.
Pretending that Saw wasn't insanely popular only shows how young you are.
I'm 27. I remember when Saw was all the rage, and yes, I remember people went and saw them and came out of the theaters traumatized. I along with every other semi-level headed person avoided them like the plague because only social outcast weirdos would willingly subject themselves to that degenerate brainrot garbage after hearing about how fricked up they are.
>I'm 27. I remember when Saw was all the rage,
Shut the frick up lmao, you were a kid when the Saw movies were coming out.
It was like 5th grade to middle school when they were coming out. You're a dumb homosexual if you don't think kids my age were watching horrors back then.
>It was like 5th grade
Yeah that's what I said, you were a kid. You were watching Spongebob.
I still was aware of the cultural impact they had and also of the fact that only degenerate outcast homosexuals like yourself watched them lmao
You weren't aware of shit, you were busy doing your homework and watching Spongebob. Audiences were watching Saw while you studied for your math test.
>homosexual weirdos like me were watching Saw while you studied for your math test.
Yeah sure, whatever helps you cope Black person lmfao
If you were older you would realize that liking gory horror was mainstream. It's you morons who are homosexuals.
Maybe the Disney/Marvel audience isn't watching them but a lot of people are/were.
It might be hard for modern audiences to understand, but gory media used to be popular. It only started declining in the past decade as it started becoming cool to be morally offended by "problematic" media for social points.
I overheard a boomer soccer mom talking about her favorite saw movies to watch on Halloween with her friend the other day.
i think it's surprising how many seemingly ordinary women out there are complete and utter freaks. the obsession with true crime is definite evidence. I was thinking earlier about how all the most popular true crime shows with women generally have to do with men torturing and murdering other men
the same goes for men too of course, but media touches quite often on the twisted 'ordinary' man
Terrifier 1 was just a setup for the sequel. Apparently it’s empowering or whatever, but I haven’t seen it.
It has silly moments and the actor who plays Art The Clown is genuinely talented but it drags on forever and is filled with reprehensible gore trash.
Terrifier 2 was a major step up from the first one, great movie.
>Saw, Hostile, or Terrifier
These movies are basically capeshit except the villain is the capeshitter.
Yeah, I've never been a fan of torture porn or slashers, they always feel kind of mean spirited, even if they make the victims into buttholes to try and make them "deserve" it.
Mean spirited horror is the best horror.
>my violent, mean-spirited and sadistic slop=nice
>your violent, mean-spirited and sadistic slop=condemnable
>Boring 2010s "elevated horror." Not a fan. These kind of movies beat you over the head with their metaphors and forget to be entertaining
Can you not post about the VVitch if you have not seen it?
>Can you not post about the VVitch if you have not seen it?
I have seen it, I just wasn't into it. Not my kind of movie.
You should then read up on what metaphors are.
The Witch has a clear "women suffer under religion" message. Ayy becoming a witch at the end is women's liberation. It wasn't subtle. Typical A24 horror stuff.
That's not my actual issue with the movie though. I just didn't find it very interesting. Wasn't into the cinematography or any of the characters.
Rape
would
No really, the main point of watching horror movies is to empathize with the victims and try to figure out how to survive the scenario that the slasher is presenting to us. Horror movies are always gonna be related to catastrophic cinema where people try to figure out how to adapt and survive.
The other day I was watching "Funny Games" by Michael Haneke, this movie takes all the horror movie tropes and dumps them in the trashcan, resulting in an obnoxious and insufferable movie to watch.
It gets worse. You're asking about the people who get off on watching them. What about the people who actually MAKE them? There is an entire industry dedicated to making horror films and profiting off them. Actors who willingly sign up to be victims in them, and to play a murderer in them
If the viewers are sociopathic what does that make the creators?
I watch them because they're the only movies still allowed to have eroticism.
people with IQs over 100 recognize movies aren't real
People with IQs over 130 realize movies are become real
>People with IQs over 130 realize movies are become real
so you believe people dont and you dont have a problem with it?
we're in deep shit if half don't.
no, we've been deep in that shit for decades.
Do you know how many nignogs believe they have a big part in european history because of hollywood movies?
Anon said "people" not nogs.
Modern audiences seem to think movies are real and that if you watch movies where bad things happen then you're endorsing those things irl.
Society is becoming deeply autistic.
> Society is becoming deeply autistic
>autistic
You keep using that word, I do not think you know what it means
Thinking movies are real life is autistic.
Telling on yourself. I don't jerk off to practical effects, I watch them and think about how awesome they are. Living in an era where filmmakers are lazy and everything is CGI really makes you appreciate good practical effects.
thinking movies are real is just low IQ behavior, read, being unable to comprehend hypotheticals
It varies. Some are, yes. For females they're more so psychophiles. They get turned on by fear.
I've grown to like horror movies more as I get older. I honestly think they're the last kind of movie that isn't veiled in 20 layers of irony and cynicism. They also generally respect their audience and just try to provide cheap thrills.
Even slop like Insidious or The Boogeyman from last year; they weren't great movies, but I walked away with the sense that the film makers were genuine in their efforts to entertain. Even with other Democratic genres like rom coms, there's a little too much self awareness and almost embarrassment about what those movies are. I could say something similar for action, comedies, etc.
There are, of course, outlying artsy or experimental horror movies, but generally speaking, regardless of the content or quality, I find it's a better experience watching a horror movie in the theaters than any other genre.
No and I hated Knock Knock.
I hate that one scene which gets posted here for self-loathing beta sub homosexuals to froth over
goreslop is boring because it isn't real
what about ghosts? I need to know how to defend myself against them.
What makes you think filmmakers have any idea of defending against ghosts?
Horror movies are cathartic. It's also the overall most commonsensical of all genres because it's inherently cautionary.
I only watch ones where sexy women suffer the most. I enjoy watching babes suffer. If you say I'm a psycho or whatever I could care less.
i think so, i've never enjoyed them. i think most people are fricked in the head in one way or another though so if watching stupid movies is the worst way that manifests its not that bad.
>Getting your jollies off depictions of people suffering (often in gruesome ways) would seem to indicate you are fricked in the head
When someone tells me their favorite movie genre is slashgay ugliness, I'll quietly and carefully ghost them. Same for girls who are really into true crime bullshit.
>Same for girls who are really into true crime bullshit
Even Forensic Files? I'm no girl, but stuff like Forensic Files and Unsolved Mysteries is fantastic.
I face fricked a trans women after watching this for a bit, I felt like a bit of a psycho after.
Can you please not associate Italian horror with your troony shit
seeth
in leviticus, the Scapegoat had the peoples' sins imputed onto it. it was released into the wilderness, where it presumably died, so that the people didn't have to.
Not sociopaths. Just bad taste in cinema.
I completely agree. I have awful taste.
Yeah, nah. You're just a pussy. Sorry about your disability.
nice foot
the director was a true visionary with that polish color
I love Giallos, Fulchi, and 80s slashers, but detest torture porn. I can't explain it.
I love slashers and gialli, and "torture porn" is a homosexual term made by critics who already hated horror and were looking for an excuse to shit on it. 2000s movies like
>the saw series
>the loved ones
>hostel
>the collector
>wolf creek
were all cool and interesting takes on violent horror.
Wrong pic
I am fricked in the head and experiencing disturbing shit through movies is a safe and controlled way to process those thoughts.
Stuff like combat footage or suicide footage is closer to what genuinely disturbs me, but watching that sort of thing just makes me feel worse. Movies place similar ideas and experiences in a rational context and give them meaning and often make them funny. Knowing that this context is totally artificial doesn't diminish the catharsis.
>zoomers get offended by gore like they're an elderly woman in the 80s crying about friday the 13th
Can anyone explain this phenomenon? Is it a consequence of growing up on milquetoast Marvel quipshit?
They're the most sheltered generation in history. This is the generation that came up with the idea that words can be violence
imagine what that couch cushion must smell like
Watching attractive women bounce about in a sweaty tank top is a horror film trope I absolutely love.
Oh Biel
I love horror so much it's unreal.
Noooo don’t spread you butt cheeks and sit on my face so your front hole lines up with my mouth and your butt hole lines up with my nose. That would be gruesome torture for me.
>spread you butt cheeks and sit on my face so your front hole lines up with my mouth and your butt hole lines up with my nose
a girl did this to me once
at the time it was disgusting because her ass smelled gross but the more I think about it the hotter it becomes and the more I crave girlass stink
Dude, something about seeing a girls butthole in real life really separates the REAL ass-eaters from the online ass-eating enthusiasts. It looks WAY gnarlier in real life than it does in the pornos. You see every pore, every dirty hair follicle, every little bit of crusty poo left over from her scrub down before. First time I saw it I completely lost my erection and realized that shit is just a meme for complete degenerates.
My wife’s butt hole looks really good. No weird bumps or out of place wrinkles. But if I smell any lingering poop smells in the bathroom it guarantees I’m not going to be up for sex that night even if she’s just had a shower. There needs to be at least a week’s worth of showers with no bathroom smells before I’m going to get up close and personal with her bitt hole.
But like I said though anon, it grossed me out at the time, but now I regularly blow massive loads remembering the smell of her ass and taste of her pussy.
It’s weird how a lot of sex memories are better than they were in the moment.
I have a few like that
Yeah I feel this. The first girl I ever fricked was really nappy and I only did it to lose my virginity but when I jerk off I almost always picture being with her instead of the "better" pussy I've gotten.
I've been arrested multiple times for vandalism, arson and assault and love scary movies so probably.
No, because you wouldn't be diagnosed with sociopathy. You can have sociopathic tendencies, but there is no such thing as an actual sociopath any longer. That diagnosis went the way of the dinosaur. You'd fall under a more accurate diagnosis, like BPD, depending on several other factors.
What of it, even if they are?
The human brain needs novelty. You stick someone in an empty room with nothing to do but touch an electric buzzer and they will voluntarily give themselves electric shocks to pass the time. Horror is primal, the antidote to modernity. Too bad the whole genre today is the most stale, unimaginative and boring slop possible.
When I was very young my dad bought a toy which was a stick with a wooden carved dragon and wheels
My favourite game was for him to chase me around pushing that stick after me and I'd squeal and run
yes
i like disaster movies and mystery. There are a few horror movies which are like close to that genre, i would call those "survival horror". movies like The Thing, Cloverfield, The mist, ... you understand me, right?
>horny clickbait image
>uhhhh how could anyone like this???
What do you reckon the OP meant by this?
I enjoy them because I was born around Halloween so they make me feel comfy and remind me of my friends and family visiting me. Non-horror movies with dark aesthetics like Tim Burton films make me feel the same way.
No. I think people who avoid them might be, though.
I don't think so. Movies are just entertainment for most people. I personally can watch and enjoy a horror movie like Saw X, then the next night I'll watch a chick flick like Anything but You and enjoy it just as much. I would think the vast majority of horror fans would be infinitely more likely to whip their dicks out and start jerking off to Sydney Sweeney in Anything but You than a woman getting decapitated in Saw X.
Salsa on OP?
OP probably thinks video games cause violence
Why is this site so full of weird moralgays now?
we evolved, you didn't
Feet!
Horror genre fans are sociopathic. The ones that love Jason. Even if they identify with villains like Darth Vader.
It doesn't make me jolly at all. It makes me feel a little fear and dread, which is exciting. Kind of like how you eat spicy food even though it isn't necessarily pleasant.
Horror movies are quintessentially about loving & respecting all women.
